Strawberry Bombs Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, washed and hulled
- 1 package crescent roll dough (or puff pastry, cut into small squares)
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar (plus extra for dusting)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup strawberry jam (optional)
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- 1 tbsp water
- Melted chocolate (optional, for drizzling)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Filling:
In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. - Assemble the Bombs:
- Flatten a piece of crescent roll dough (or puff pastry) slightly.
- Place a dollop of cream cheese filling in the center, followed by a small amount of strawberry jam (if using).
- Add one whole strawberry on top.
- Seal the Dough:
Wrap the dough around the strawberry and pinch the edges to seal completely, forming a ball. - Apply Egg Wash:
Whisk the egg with water and brush it over the dough balls for a golden finish. - Bake:
Place the sealed bombs on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown. - Cool and Decorate:
Let the bombs cool slightly, then dust them with powdered sugar. Drizzle with melted chocolate for an extra touch.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve warm as a dessert or a sweet snack. Pair with coffee, tea, or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
